Going Bonkers Feline Style for March Madness and Daylight Saving Time!
The world is more than a bit mad – that’s why I’m so grateful for my cats because they always inspire a sense of calm in the storm for me.
March Madness – that crazy time of year for the annual NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) college basketball tournament. I don’t watch basketball, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have our own brand of crazy madness around the house – just with kitties instead of basketball players. Check out these pictures to see what I mean.
Why Kizmet felt he was entitled to sit on that particular spot on the floor is beyond me… thank goodness Zoey straightened him out with her polite madness!
For Peanut, once is enough to establish a permanent pattern. I did let her go out a couple of months ago (supervised) now she is obsessively crazed that it’s supposed to happen every time she stands by the door. It’s not…
Who let that dog in the house…. Has the whole house gone mad? (Kizmet reacting to my grand-dog, Rick, visiting).
Zee goes a bit crazy at night… these are some of the toys we will find on the bedroom floor in the morning that he has dragged in as a gift for us.
Jazmine is madly in love with Kizmet, she just has a rough way of showing it!
When it’s time for dinner, the cats swarm in a crazy circle waiting for the food dishes to hit the floor! It’s the height of madness in our house! Archive photo: 2014
It looks like maybe the NCAA basketball players partied at our house… look at that mess!
Mia would never get mad… she loves her Mama and Papa too much, but it would be nice if they scooched over just a bit for her to fit in!
There can be different levels of madness… This was Rolz reacting to Kizmet when they were first introduced to one another years ago and he was super mad! Thankfully the days of tension are long gone!
It’s Angry Bird… kinda a given that he’s mad…it’s built into his plush DNA.
Perhaps the craziest of all are Dan and I. This is what our bed typically looks like… Rather than shoo the kitties off the bed at night, we just figure out a way to sleep around them! Archive photo 2010
So how about your place? After seeing my pictures, do you have any kitty madness you’d like to share?

Oh, and don’t forget to set your clocks ahead one hour before you go to bed tonight! Daylight Saving Time officially starts on Sunday, March 13 at 2:00 a.m.
Jazmine is giving you a friendly reminder to set your clocks ahead one hour for Daylight Saving Time! Yeah for an extra hour of sunshine after dinner!
M here: I love all your pictures. Even our house with 1 permanent kitty in residence and my daughter 2 cats in residence for 2 weeks, it’s been crazy here too – only just not on your scale. I’d like to know how you find room to sleep at night. I even find it difficult at times, although I haven’t had 3 in bed. Just two that like to hog the bed. Good to see you again. Wish my back would allow more sitting, so I could visit whenever you have a post.
Good to see you too M. I’m sorry you have back problems – I actually do too – always in such pain. Give Mario my love and I’m grateful for whenever you can stop by!
You are lucky to be surrounded by such beauty! Love those photos!!!
Thank you Brian – I am blessed!
Love seeing all your kitties. Enjoy your weekend.
Thanks Sue – I hope you enjoy yours as well!
Not much craziness going on here except yesterday. When I go to the bathroom, Flynn always accompanies me. Yesterday he was sleeping on the bed so I went in and shut the door behind me. He must have heard because when I opened it he came bouncing sideways at me like he used to when he was a kitten. It was wonderful to see and surely must mean he feels a bit better.
It’s amazing how well a cat can hear… I know exactly what you mean about Flynn… I think I’m alone, next thing I know, I’ve got a cat next to me! I’m so glad he’s feeling a bit better!
I absolutely HATE Daylight Saving Time (do you know I actually learned yesterday that it’s “Saving” and not “Savings”?) I didn’t believe it when I read someone’s post and then I Googled it, it’s actually “saving!” That being said Jazmine cracks me up!
I just hate changing the clocks in general… but I really do like having it light longer! Thanks for the info on Saving… just made some changes…
What a gorgeous family you have! Your archival photos bring back happy memories of better days when our family was larger. Love your blog!
Thank you jmuhj – I do miss my archive kitties… glad we could bring you some happy memories!
Loved every one of these pictures. The one of Jazmine showing her love to Kizmet gave us a giggle. All those gifts, what a showing of love. It does kinda look like somebody partied at your place. Lastly we have a question…how do you find a way to get in your bed? lol Hugs and nose kisses
Hi Pooh and Her Pooch… glad you enjoyed the pictures! As far as how do we find a way to get into bed…it’s never easy!
All those wonderful kitties keeping you safe through the night! It’s a beautiful thing.
They do keep us safe @Jobi and Fisher! It’s very comforting to know they are so close by!
We always go a little “mad” with the change of the seasons. Spring is coming soon (we hope!) so the madness should start soon.
Madness or mad-cap-ness? 🙂
We think the only TRUE madness we see is your reference to (ick) Daylight SAVINGS Time (MOL!)
How sweet that Zee brings you all those toys at night. My cats never bring me anything.
We’re not big fans of losing an hour, but having some extra sunshine is nice. 🙂
Great pictures of your beautiful gang, as always.
Hugs!
We hate setting the clocks but we LOVE the photos!
Have a great week…
